The tacos were really good, tried the trompo and the bistek. Also had a campechana (trompo with bistek and Oaxaca cheese) which was delicious too. One thing I will recommend to the owner is to make sure that the grilled onions stay warm, mine were cold.

Okay this location does deserve 5 stars I must say. The food is delicious and the service was great. The food had a lot of meat and the taste of it was delicious. The green salsa and trompo were a good combination and the loaded fries with bistec & trompo mixed with cheese was delicious as well. This location does have a spot designated for you to sit and eat. The gentleman who took our order was cool and respectful and was able to give us a breakdown of the food question we had. The young teenager who brought our food was nice and respectful as well. They both checked up on us multiple times and asked if everything was good and if we needed anything. Even though this is a Taco Truck it felt kinda like a dine in restaurant. We will be back again if we are in the area craving tacos de trompo 😁.

We stayed in the medical district but really wanted some authentic Tacos. After some research we decided to take the 30 minute drive to give it a shot. I got 2 gringas Trompo y bistec he got an order of tacos the same. My Bf has been in the US for 20yrs, he said it’s the best taco he’s ever had outside of Tijuana/ San Diego. The trompo was delicious and tender exactly as it should be. We’re sad we head home tomorrow and won’t be able to enjoy it again. The sitting area was clean and cute, the service was fast and friendly. Job well done guys!!

The truck was easy to find & both guys were nice, especially the guy taking my order...he was nice enough to bring my food to my car for me. I got trompo tacos, they were 5 for $10 & I must say they were very flavorful & the meat was tender. They weren't too greasy & both the green & red salsa that came with them were VERY good as well...the red was just the right amount of spicy for me, I would have liked a little more cilantro mixed with the onion though & the additional grilled onion probably could've been cooked a little longer but they were still good also. This was my first visit but it definitely will not be the last. My 5 & 3 year old enjoyed their taco as well & they are picky eaters 🤣. Our next trip we will definitely try out the rest of the menu. I gave 4 stars because I was surprised by the size of the taco for it to have been $2 per taco, they're definitely more of a mini taco & not the standard size.

Food was so delicious! Both the pork tacos and the beef tacos were delicious! Loved the tostada! And I think my dad would’ve drank a bottle of the salsa verde! So good!
